Women make up half of communities but only a small percentage of the fire service, making them a great potential audience for recruitment. While there are many benefits to being a firefighter, there are also challenges when it comes to recruiting and retaining women. Some of these include health risks, ill-fitting gear, discrimination, and limited workplace policies that can impact physical and mental wellbeing. In this webinar, Brittany Hollerbach from NDRI-USA, Inc. will share groundbreaking insights on the health issues specific to female firefighters and highlight practical strategies to address these challenges. Join us to explore how departments can improve recruitment, retention, and safety by implementing inclusive policies, health-focused programs, and supportive environments for women firefighters.
